Run full, native Ubuntu Linux command-line environments directly on your Android phone or tablet — 100% rootless!

Complete Linux Installer (Linux on Android) brings a real Linux terminal emulator, APT package manager, and one-click developer stacks directly to your mobile device without requiring root access or custom ROMs.
